Land East of Veralan Rake Road Milland Liphook West Sussex

1. 1.The proposed dwelling, by reason of its siting, design and scale would result in a dominant and incongruous form of development which would be out of character with the pattern of development and local vernacular of the area failing to conserve and enhance the landscape character of the South Downs National Park. The proposal would therefore be contrary to Policies SD1, SD4 and SD5 of the South Downs Local Plan, Policies HD.2, HD.3 and HD.4 of the Milland Neighbourhood Plan, the NPPF, the Adopted Design Guide (SPD) and the purposes and duties of the South Downs National Park.
2. 2.The proposed dwelling, by reason of its siting and scale would result in overlooking and overbearing harm to residential amenity of the neighbouring properties. The proposal would therefore be contrary to Policy SD5 of the South Downs Local Plan, the NPPF, the Adopted Design Guide (SPD) and the purposes and duties of the South Downs National Park.

From the council's decision notice.
